The Tears Of The Earth

The Tears Of The Earth, Without Pretence, Practically Holds Court For Environmental Or Eco-concerns With Global Ripples, Staking A Legitimate Claim As A Landmark Tributary To The Mainstream Discourse And Current Debates On Global Warming And Climate Change, Especially By Portraying Africa, Still Trapped And Anaesthetized In The Web Of Post-colonial Vassalage, Compelled To Mortgage Her Natural Resources For Savage Exploitation With Little Or No Regard To Either Environmental Impact Or Sustainability. The Poems Are An Expression Of The Authorrsquo;s Noble Indignation At Societyrsquo;s Governing Elite For Allowing Collective Natural Resources Mother Earthrsquo; To Be Callously Butchered, So Ingloriously Ransacked, Liberally Poisoned And Gagged Beyond Recognitionrdquo; For Mere Lucre Or Midasrsquo; Touchrdquo; Which Procures And Sustains The Infernal Binary Of Power And Priderdquo; Deified By Our Societies.
